Abstract

This article describes some of the neutron scattering techniques which can be used to probe structures of materials on length scales which range from less than 1 Å to 1 μm. The intent is to remove the veils of secrecy and mystery which have apparently prevented the wide application of these techniques to problems in materials science.
